Related Art

Display modules in conventional virtual reality devices now generally adopt the Pancake folded optical path solution for ultra-short focus distance.

FIG. 1 depicts an exploded schematic diagram of a conventional display module adopting the Pancake folded optical path solution. As shown in the figure, a display module 100 comprises a display screen component 110, a transflective lens 120, and a convex lens component 130 in sequence from a display side to a viewing side. The display screen component 110 comprises a display screen 112, a first absorption polarizer 114, and a first quarter wave plate 116 sequentially laminated through a transparent glue 90. The convex lens component 130 comprises a convex lens 132, a second absorption polarizer 134, a reflective polarizer 136, a second quarter wave plate 138, and an anti-reflection film 139 laminated through a transparent glue 90. The folded-type light path of the light emitted by the display screen 112 from being incident on the first absorption polarizer 114 to being emitted from the convex lens 132 and entering the human eye for imaging is shown by the solid arrow in FIG. 1 . Since the light needs to undergo 15 reflections, scattering and transmission (shown by the dashed arrow in FIG. 1 ) in the light path from the first incident to the anti-reflection film 139 to the reflective polarizer 136 (that is, the light path of the first incident to the convex lens component 130 to the reflective polarizer 136). Thus, the energy possessed in a regular light path is weakened, showing an issue that the utilization rate of light energy is lowered.

FIG. 4 is a combined view of the display module of an embodiment in FIG. 2 . A display module 200 can be applied to a virtual reality device that realizes the immersion of virtual reality, and provides a virtual reality image on the left or right corresponding to a position of the left eye or right eye of users (i.e., a virtual reality device comprises two display modules 200). As shown in FIG. 2 to FIG. 4 , the display module 200 comprises a display screen component 210, an optical lens component 220, and a convex lens component 230 in sequence from a display side (the light emitting side of the display screen) to a viewing side (one side close to human eye), where the optical lens component 220 and the convex lens component 230 are optically coaxial (in common optical axis C). The display screen component 210 comprises a display screen 212, a first absorption polarizer 214, and a first quarter wave plate 216 in sequence from the display side to the viewing side. Wherein, the display screen 212 may be, but not limited to, an LCD screen or an OLED screen, for example, an LCD screen with a resolution above 4K (high resolution quality), having excellent contrast, color gamut range, and color accuracy. The display screen 212 can be connected to an external circuit through a flexible circuit board (FPC) 70. The thickness of the first absorption polarizer 214 may be less than or equal to 0.08 mm and greater than or equal to 0.04 mm, and the polarization rate of the first absorption polarizer 214 may be greater than or equal to 99.9%. An absorption axis of the first absorption polarizer 214 and a fast axis of the first quarter wave plate 216 form an angle of 45 degrees. The first quarter wave plate 216 can delay the phase by π/2 or its odd multiples in the entire visible light band from 400 nm to 700 nm, and the delay accuracy can be but not limited to ±5%.

In this embodiment, the optical lens component 220 may comprise a low-transmission and high-reflection lens 222 and a low-reflection concave lens 224 in sequence from the display side to the viewing side, where the reflectivity of the low-transmission and high-reflection lens 222 may be 65%±10%, and the transmittance may be 35%±10%. The low-transmission and high-reflection lens 222 can be a high-refractive-index optical resin lens, and the material of which can be selected from optical resin with a density of 1.1 g/cm³ to reduce the weight and thickness. The low-reflection concave lens 224 can be an aspheric and high-refractive-index optical resin lens, that having a refractive index greater than or equal to 1.9, and the material can be selected from optical resin with low density (for example 1.1 g/cm³) to reduce the weight. In another embodiment, the optical lens component 220 may include a semi-transmission-reflective lens, the light transmittance, and reflectivity of which are respectively 50%.

In this embodiment, the convex lens component 230 comprises a convex lens 232, a second absorption polarizer 234, and an optical integrated element 236, which are laminated in sequence from the viewing side to the display side. The optical integrated element 236 comprises a second quarter wave plate 50 and a reflective polarizing film 52 coated on one side surface of the optical integrated element 236. The reflective polarizing film 52 is attached to the second absorption polarizer 234. An absorption axis of the first absorption polarizer 214 is parallel to an absorption axis of the second absorption polarizer 234. The fast axis of the second quarter wave plate 50 and a transmission axis of the reflective polarizing film 52 form an angle of 45 degrees. The absorption axis of the second absorption polarizer 234 and the fast axis of the second quarter wave plate 50 form an angle of 45 degrees. Wherein, the material of the second quarter wave plate 50 may be, but not limited to, polycarbonate (PC), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), triacetate cellulose (TAC), polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), or cyclic olefin polymer (COP), and the temperature resistance requirement of which may be, but not limited to, dry baking at a temperature of 105 degrees Celsius for 1000 hours. The reference value of the phase delay accuracy of the second quarter wave plate 50 in the visible light band from 400 nm to 700 nm may be, but not limited to, ±15%. The material of the reflective polarizing film 52 may include but not limited to metals such as zirconium, titanium, and their oxides.

In this embodiment, the folded-type optical path in the display module 200 may be: light emitted by the display screen 212 becomes P light after passing through the first absorption polarizer 214; the P light is modulated into left-handed circularly polarized light after passing through the first quarter wave plate 216; a part of the left-handed circularly polarized light passes through the low-transmission and high-reflection lens 222 and the low-reflection concave lens 224, then is converted to S light by the second quarter wave plate 50. The S light is reflected back to the second quarter wave plate 50 by the reflective polarizing film 52 to be modulated into right-handed circularly polarized light; a part of the right-handed circularly polarized light passes through the low-reflection concave lens 224 and is then reflected by the low-transmission and high-reflection lens 222 and passes through the low-reflection concave lens 224 again, then is converted into P light by the second quarter wave plate 50; the P light passes through the reflective polarizing film 52, the second absorption polarizer 234, and the convex lens 232, and finally enters human eye to form an enlarged virtual image. Wherein, an optically transparent adhesive is applied between the display screen 212 and the first absorption polarizer 214, between the first absorption polarizer 214 and the first quarter wave plate 216, between the convex lens 232 and the second absorption polarizer 234, and between the reflective polarizing film 52 and the second absorption polarizer 234. The light emitted from the display screen 212 only undergoes three times of reflections, scattering, and transmission from the first incident into the convex lens component 230 to the second absorption polarizer 234, so the utilization rate of light energy can be improved.

In another embodiment, one side surface of the second quarter wave plate 50 is not coated with a reflective polarizing film 52, but with a nano-imprinted metal grating, which is attached to the second absorption polarizer 234. The fast axis of the second quarter wave plate 50 and the extension direction of the metal grating form an angle of 45 degrees. The material of the metal grating may include, but not limited to, metals such as aluminum, silver, or titanium, and alloy materials thereof. So, the reflective polarizing film 52 can be replaced by the metal grating.

Thus, in the display module 200: definition can be improved through high quality display screen 212; scattered light reflected by interfaces can be reduced with linear polarizers having high polarization efficiency; the polarization state of the folded-type optical path can be precisely controlled by the first quarter wave plate 216 having high delay accuracy; the transmitted scattered light in the display module 200 can be reduced by the low-transmission and high-reflection lens; the definition of the four corners and distortion on the display can be improved by the low-transmission and high-reflection lens 222, the low-reflection concave lens 224, and the convex lens 232; the number of times of reflection, scattering and transmission of the light emitted from the display screen 212 in the folded-type optical path can be reduced by the optical integrated element 236 (the optical integrated element 236 comprises the second quarter wave plate 50 and, on one side surface of the optical integrated element 236, the coated reflective polarizing film 52 or the nano-imprinted metal grating) having phase delay and reflective polarization functions (reducing the reflective polarizer 136, anti-reflection film 139, and the transparent adhesive used for lamination in the display module 100 of prior art), to improve the utilization rate of light energy and reduce the thickness of the display module 200.

In one embodiment, the transmittance of the reflective polarizing film 52 or the metal grating to the P light may be greater than or equal to 85±15%, the reflectivity of the reflective polarizing film 52 or the metal grating to the S light may be greater than or equal to 85±15%, and the transmittance of the reflective polarizing film 52 or the metal grating to the S light may be less than or equal to 2%. Thus, unnecessary light loss can be reduced, normal image brightness can be maximized, and scattered light such as direct transmission can be improved.

In one embodiment, the thickness of the reflective polarizing film 52 or the metal grating may be greater than or equal to 300 nm and less than or equal to 1 μm.

In one embodiment, the thickness of the second quarter wave plate 50 may be greater than or equal to 50 μm and less than or equal to 200 μm. Preferably, the thickness of the second quarter wave plate 50 may be 60 μm, 100 μm, or 180 μm.

In one embodiment, one side of the second quarter wave plate 50 opposite to the reflective polarizing film 52 or the metal grating can be coated with an ultra-low reflection film layer, pasted with an ultra-low reflection film, or pasted with a lens coated with the ultra-low reflection film. So, the optical integrated element 236 can have low reflectivity.

In one embodiment, the reflectivity of the ultra-low reflection film layer or the ultra-low reflection film to visible light may be less than or equal to 0.5%.

In one embodiment, the thickness of the ultra-low reflection film layer or the ultra-low reflection film may be less than or equal to 1 μm. Preferably, the thickness of the ultra-low reflection film layer or the ultra-low reflection film may be less than or equal to 500 nm.

In one embodiment, the ultra-low reflection film layer or the ultra-low reflection film may comprise one or more layers of film material, where film material may include, but not limited to, titanium oxide and silicon dioxide, and the number of layers of film material can be, but not limited to 6 or 8 layers. When the ultra-low reflection film layer or the ultra-low reflection film comprises a multi-layer film material, it can be formed by alternately stacking titanium oxide and silicon dioxide.

Refer to table 1 and table 2 below, table 1 shows the measured data of the display module 100, and table 2 presents the measured data of replacing the convex lens component 130 of the display module 100 with the convex lens component 230 of present disclosure. The optical integrated element 236 comprises the second quarter wave plate 50, the reflective polarizing film 52 or the metal grating, and the ultra-low reflection film layer or the ultra-low reflection film or the lens coated with the ultra-low reflection film. It can be seen from table 1 and table 2 that, except for the very little difference in the reflectivity of the anti-reflection film, since the convex lens component 230 is able to minimize unwanted reflections within the material (the reflective polarizer 136, the anti-reflection film 139, and the transparent adhesive for lamination of the display module 100 in prior art), the convex lens component 130 of the display module 100 is replaced with the convex lens component 230 of the present disclosure, and the measured transmittance and the reflectance of the convex lens component 230 respectively to the P light and the S light are slightly increased.

In one embodiment, referring to FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 , the display module 200 may further include a bracket 240, in which the optical lens component 220 and the convex lens component 230 are assembled. According to the principle of coincidence of a normal line in a physical center of an effective area of the display screen and an optical axis of the optical lens component, the bracket 240 is assembled to the display screen component 210.

In one embodiment, referring to FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 , in addition to the bracket 240, the display module 200 may also comprise a knob 250 and a snap ring 260. The low-transmission and high-reflection lens 222, the low-reflection concave lens 224, and the convex lens component 230 are assembled in the bracket 240. The knob 250 is sleeved on an outer side of the bracket 240, and the snap ring 260 is clamped to the bracket 240 and restricts the movement of the knob 250 in an optical axis direction. The bracket 240 is provided with a plurality of inclined guiding grooves 242 in communication with an inner side and an outer side of the bracket 240. The low-transmission and high-reflection lens 222 is provided with a plurality of guiding columns 60, which pass through the plurality of inclined guiding grooves 242 (the guiding columns 60 and the inclined guiding grooves 242 are in one-to-one correspondence) and are tightly fitted with the knob 250. The low-reflection concave lens 224 can be assembled in the bracket 240 by dispensing, baking, and curing (after a UV thermo-curing adhesive 80 is dispensed at a preset position of the bracket 240, the low-reflection concave lens 224 is assembled thereon, then the UV thermo-curing adhesive 80 is irradiated with ultraviolet light for preliminary curing, and finally sent to the oven for baking, to assemble the low-reflection concave lens 224 to the preset position of the bracket 240). When the knob 250 rotates in a circumferential direction, the plurality of guiding columns 60 are driven to move along the plurality of inclined guiding grooves 242 to adjust the relative position of the low-transmission high-reflection lens 222 and the low-reflection concave lens 224. Thus, without increasing the actual thickness of the display module 200, a simple inclined plane rotation configuration can be used to adjust the relative position of the low-transmission and high-reflection lens 222 and the low-reflection concave lens 224 to adjust the diopter for eyesight of different users.

In another embodiment, referring to FIG. 5 , which is a schematic cross-sectional view of a display module of an embodiment of the present disclosure. The only difference between the display module 300 of FIG. 5 and the display module 200 of FIG. 3 is: the low-reflection concave lens 224 is provided with a plurality of guiding columns 60, which pass through the plurality of inclined guiding grooves 242 and are tightly fitted with the knob 250; the low-transmission and high-reflection lens 222 can be assembled in the bracket 240 by dispensing, baking and curing (after an UV thermo-curing adhesive 80 is dispensed at a preset position of the bracket 240, the low-transmission and high-reflection lens 222 is assembled thereon, then the UV thermo-curing adhesive 80 is irradiated with ultraviolet light for preliminary curing, and finally sent to the oven for baking, to assemble the low-transmission and high-reflection lens 222 to the preset position of the bracket 240); when the knob 250 rotates in a circumferential direction, the plurality of guiding columns 60 are driven to move along the plurality of inclined guiding grooves 242 to adjust the relative position of the low-transmission high-reflection lens 222 and the low-reflection concave lens 224.

Besides, before the reflective polarizing film 52 or the metal grating is attached to the second absorption polarizer 234, the direction of the absorption axis of the second absorption polarizer 234 and the direction of the fast axis of the second quarter wave plate 50 can be measured by a specific machine, respectively, the reflective polarizer film 52 or metal grating can be precisely attached to the second absorption polarizer 234 according to the angle of 45 degrees between the absorption axis of the second absorption polarizer 234 and the fast axis of the second quarter wave plate 50.

In one embodiment, referring to FIG. 2 , FIG. 3 , and FIG. 6 , since the optical lens component 220 may comprise a low-transmission and high-reflection lens 222 and a low-reflection concave lens 224, low-transmission and high-reflection lens 222 and the low-reflection concave lens 224 could be coaxial (the optical axis C).
